Obtain reads mapping to splice junctions

we have RNA seq bam aligned using Hisat2, since hisat provides hisat2_extract_splice_sites.py script which gives co ordinates for splice junctions was wondering if some one could point us to how we can obtain reads mapping to these junctions something similar to Htseq where it provides genes mapping to genes.

Thanks.

rna-seq splicing

So is there any way to do this outside of using those splicing tools? we have curated list of splice junctions that have been seen to change in certain conditions, (around 200 junctions), we did match those 200 with hisat2's script output and now just need reads mapping to it will bedtools perform such operation? sorry i really do not understand @Pierre's solutions although i am sure it works primarily due to lack of understanding towards java programming

will this work just did a bit or more research

To generate read counts, you must run QoRTs [4] on each aligned bam file. QoRTs includes a basic function that calculates a variety of QC metrics along with gene-level and splice-junction-level counts. All these functions can be performed in a single step and a single pass through the input alignment file, greatly simplifying the analysis pipeline. For example, to run QoRTs on the first read-group of replicate SHAM1_RG1 from the example dataset:

java -jar /path/to/jarfile/QoRTs.jar QC \
--stranded \
inputData/bamFiles/SHAM1_RG1.bam \
inputData/annoFiles/anno.gtf.gz \
rawCts/SHAM1_RG1/
